Azure - App Services

Cloud - Azure - App Services Opspack

Azure App Services is a platform as a service (PaaS) cloud computing based platform for managing and hosting websites. It allows publishing Web apps running on multiple frameworks and written in various programming languages.

What You Can Monitor

This Opspack allows you to monitor all the metrics you need to efficiently run Azure App Services on Microsoft Azure. After installation, you'll be able to check the number of requests, the response time and the number of data bytes coming in and out, as well as many other metrics.

Setup and Configuration

Step 1: Import the Opspack

Download the cloud-azure-app-services.opspack file from the Releases section of this repository.
Navigate to Host Template Settings inside Opsview Monitor and select Import Opspack in the top left corner.

Then click Browse and select the cloud-azure-app-services.opspack file. Click Upload and then click Import when the file is uploaded.
You may see a 'CONFLICT' warning message after uploading - this is because all 'Cloud - Azure' Opspacks utilize the same variable (AZURE_CREDENTIALS) for authorizing access to your resources. Just click Overwrite and the Opspack should import successfully.

Step 2: Add the host template

Add the relevant host template (as listed in the Service Checks table above).
If this is a resource that is applicable for a host check (has a valid hostname or IP) then you can fill in the Primary Hostname/IP field with this, and then open the Advanced section at the bottom and change the Host Check Command type to TCP Port 80 (HTTP). If the resource has no hostname or public IP, then change Host Check Command to Always assumed to be UP.

Step 3: Add and configure variables required for this host

Add 'AZURE_CREDENTIALS' to the host, then override the Subscription ID, Client ID, Secret Key and Tenant ID to match the values retrieved earlier.

Depending on your host template, you will require different additional variables declared as specified below:
